Die Herren fahren eine mit Präzision ausgetüftelte Melodic-Power-Metal-Fusion auf und zaubern einige sehr hochwertige, stets eingängige Hymnen aus dem Ärmel. Die Belgier zeigen wie progressiver, sehr abwechslungsreicher, aber knochenharter Metal der klassischen Schule klingen muss. Mitreißende Melodiebögen und tonnenweise nachvollziehbare Hooklines geben hier ganz klar die Marschrichtung vor. Es entstehen dadurch sehr facettenreiche Songs, die nie langweilig werden und immer mit einer gewissen Portion Ohrwurmfaktor versehen sind.
4/5

Après un Initial Process plutôt prometteur sorti en 2011 qui a notamment permis à MAX PIE de tourner avec des groupes tels que EVERGREY ou JON OLIVA'S PAIN, les Belges ont du faire face à quelques remaniements de personnel avec les départs des deux guitaristes et du batteur qui officiaient sur le premier album.

"Progressive Metal sophomore album by one of the best melodic bands we've heard in a long time. Very majestic and sophisticated music that should appeal to a wide range of listeners."

Laten we onmiddellijk met de deur in huis vallen: deze CD is top! Haal hem in huis! Misschien wat jammer voor wie een review graag leest en het oordeel pas op het einde wil vernemen maar deze keer konden we écht niet anders.
95/100

The first thing to say is do not let the quite uninspiring band name of Belgian metallers Max Pie put you off from investigating what is in the form of their new album a rather thrilling and dramatic adventure and sound. Eight Pieces -One World is a captivating heavy metal release, an album bulging at the seams with muscular and almost carnivorous tracks soaked in fiery melodic invention and potently expressive passion. To be honest it came as a complete surprise but as the saying goes ‘do not judge a book by its cover’, or in this case the name, as you will miss out on one of the treats of the year.
9/10

Belgian band Max Pie started in 2005 and originally played Classic Hard Rock/Metal in the vein of Deep Purple. After many line-up changes the band begin to play Progressive Metal. The musicians are not novices, they are all mature and experienced according to pictures and I suppose that most of them are known from other projects.

Μετά το πολύ καλό και πετυχημένο ντεμπούτο του 2011, η μπάντα από το Βέλγιο επιστρέφει με το δεύτερο φιλόδοξο πόνημα της με το τίτλο “Eight Pieces- One World”.
